    ^^ I managed 51 minutes before my room froze, after which I haven't been able to log back on. the only reason I signed on at all was to show my face to my regs, and they've seen me now, so I'm off to AW.

    I just had that thing happen where I did a 10 minute show and got paid for 2 mins 26 seconds. Has this been resolving itself or should I email support? Overall it's been a decent night. A bit glitchy but nothing too crazy. I do expect to get paid for services rendered tho

    I keep seeing the models online go from 1200s to the 800s in minutes. I don't know if it's massive site booting or a glitch in girls online/ the ranking system. I'm going to say a little prayer then log on. Cam Fairy Dust to everyone else logging on today. May the Cam Gods be with you.

    Let's hope today is better than yesterday and last night. I was worried that bit was only me.having issues so I went to some other girls rooms and watched the issues they where having too, like gold show stuff not showing up and cam feed flickering repeatedly.

    I really hope today is better on SM Funny, yesterday I was rolling right along like normal for 90 minutes. Logged off for a short break and then when I tried to get back online, the problems, issues, came rolling in nonstop! Of course the last hour I was able to cam was problem free! DAMN I did notice some models online the whole time on the first page, so that tells me some were able to stream without issue. So, my advice? If you get on with no problems DON'T log off. Stay on. And I'm not offering the phone service until I know the coast is clear. Yesterday, that thing was ringing long AFTER I was booted off!

As in, they are missing out on the 40% of visitors on the site being from US. I know not entirely, since they can still be found, but you ladies are more likely to be overlooked if you are lower placement due to location.

    In theory, I can understand why they did it. But if there isn't an European country (that isn't English speaking) is getting around the amount of traffic, I feel like you ladies will be getting the short end of the stick until it is balanced. If it gets balanced.

    Also, what other changes maybe happening with this partnership? I'd like to know.
    everytime I hear the name "Lazlo" or "laszlo" I think of ....that crazy guy in the movie Real Genius, Maybe this is his plan for SM? LOL

    Also I don't have a screen shot of this because I was like wtf. I tried blocking a 30 sec peeper. It didn't pop up... until 13 minutes later, when a reg tried taking me to exclusive. The block box popped up instead of the exclusive alert. Until I got through the spam block boxes because I clicked on it 6 times. Thank god my reg came back, because I almost lost my shit.
    Yep same thing happened Sunday, it cam up during an exclusive I too almost lost my show and kept getting that stupid block box when I had tried blocking a beggar earlier

    I was told because you were tipped Canadian dollars... Currency exchange ... Sounds odd but okay. We need to figure out exchange to get tipped the right amount now? Didn't have to before.

    Default Re: The Streamate Thread

    *sigh* I'm so glad to come on here and see that I'm not going crazy and the only one having issues. I'm not happy that this shit isn't figured out on SM and I honestly don't know how much longer I can hang in there. Today was going to be a hustle week for me, but it is extremely difficult to hustle when SM won't even let me log on. Hopefully things are fixed soon, otherwise they can't possibly expect the customers to stay on there when there are a million other sites that aren't having these problems where they can spend their money.

    I'm pissed that SM is still having issues because I have to spend the rest of the week at my mother-in-laws house so I won't be able to work again until Friday at the earliest. I hope it's working better by then!

    Up until the start of January this year the Canadian dollar was almost on par with the U.S. dollar. Like the most difference was $1 to $1.05 in exchange. About second week in January the Canadian dollar dropped almost over night; there's now a 25-30¢ difference to the dollar ($1us = $1.25-1.30 Canadian). Which works out if you're Canadian working on SM because you now make $250-300 on every $1000 earned (less exchange fees). However, it's too big of a hit in difference for the exchange rate for SM to absorb, so that's why there's a variance in what guys from Canada pay now. Hope that helps and makes sense.

    I can't edit my post above for some reason, but basically this is the conversion (at this time):

    $1 U.S. = $1.30 Canadian
    $0.76 Canadian = $1 U.S.

    There are also Australian dollars. Their exchange rate is even worse! So if You get an Aussie tipping in Aussi dollars its way less then what show. Additionally there is the Euro which is more then the dollar so you make money on that and the Pound Sterling which is way higher then the dollar, they pay like 3 and change for a 5 gold tip- I have also received the swiss francs on Streamate. I always thought it was up to the customer to decide if he wanted his CC to be charged in American Dollars or the Dollars of his country, It doesnt make any difference to you unless it is only a Tip given in Free or in addition to a show.

    So support got back to me.... SMH. Not a robot response but come on, really?
    (not sure if the pics are working right so I copy/pasted the response also):

    RamonaRamone (2 days ago):

    "I have been having issues constantly for the past two hours (I can provide more than one screenshot to back this up). I have had customers complain about the exclusive button simply not working, had customers cams freeze up during c2c, and I even had one complaint of my Streamate email messages showing up in German (for an English-speaking customer - I also only speak English). I have had multiple customers booted out of exclusive sessions when I can see both their hands and know they have not exited voluntarily. This is really concerning.
    For the record, I am using the new 720 settings and the encoder. I've had glitches before (mostly in the past two and a half weeks) but never as bad as this. My chatroom will be full of people but none of them are able to do shows. It's super frustrating, and I know I'm not the only model having these issues. Will these be fixed soon? I know you guys tried to fix yesterday's issues, but this seems just as bad..."

    SM support (30 mins ago):
    "If a customer is having an issue with their account or billing then you need to tell them to come talk to support so we can fix it. I cannot fix or change anything without the account holders permission anyway so that is the best way to handle anyone who is telling you they are having a problem."

    Streamate support:





    I'd forward this to Vanessa or Liz at this point. Or send them a message back saying, "did you even read my original email? I'm just reporting what I've been told." Also link them this forum, see what they say about it.

    Yes totally! Most of my non-us guys are Canadian, and I'm Canadian so that's why I only posted that above. I check the cdn-us exchange rate almost daily. You're right, there are big exchange rate differences all across the board, especially as of lately.
